It must have been on here before but people parking in spaces reserved for people with disabilities...always makes me feel like taking a key to the side of the car...particularly if is an SUV...

Most of these people are sociopath's, so they probably qualify for the space!

Seriously Green Fields what's your problem?

You started off having a go at drivers who take up two spaces(and rightly so) and now you are insulting those who like to drive a nice premium brand car.
Personally, I would prefer to buy a 2 or 3 year old Audi,BMW or whatever than buy a brand new Renault or something.

Some people worry about what year is on their number plate but have to buy a cheap brand to do so(you could say these people also see this as a status symbol) and then there are others who like a more upmarket car but have to buy second hand to do so,as I said I know which one I'd prefer.

I have seen cars off all makes take up two spaces or park in disabled spaces or whatever.
You're making a bit of an eejit of yourself on here.

I was merely making the correct correlation between people taking up two parking spaces and those driving audi's, bmw's, merc's and not wanting precious to be touched.  The status symbol drivers all seem to have taken offence, it's quite amusing to watch. ;D

Enjoying your formative years with friends, not having a huge void when everything stops.  GAA is an amazing sport but the professional approach now taken even among clubs and the expectation put on folk with jobs and a life is getting ridiculous.

He said that at an award ceremony among many fellow wealthy athletes, giving up your life for the GAA doesn't pay the mortgage.

No it doesn't, nor should it.
I think you are missing the point though, there is much more to be gained from dedicating yourself to a sport than money.

There is also a lot to lose.

And 90% of them are driving second hand cars, because folk like laoislad would rather pay through the nose for a second hand status symbol than get a car practical and affordable to their lifestyle.

Anybody that goes into a showroom and buys a new car only to lose 25-40% of the value of it as soon as they stick a set of plates on it needs their head examined.

And if some people decide they want a nice second hand car, well sure that's their lookout.  I'm sure they won't be giving a shit about you in the 1.0L Liana as you drive past in your jealous rage.

Is there a connection between the Green Fields and the Green Eyed Monster...

It's amazing you know what I drive, I'd say you are a status symbol kinda guy, you bigfella, laoislad etc should swap car pics, be nice to share at christmas time.

Lads this "mine is bigger than yours" stuff is embarrassing. Catch yourselves on.

My point was these wankers in their big flash cars deliberately parking to take up two spaces do so in case precious gets scrapped or tapped by someone beside them opening their door, and in 90% of the cases they are pieces of shit 10 years old with bigfella 1 on the number plate.

I bet you buy part worn tyres

And put the safety of myself and my family at risk - why would you say that?

Usually car proud w**kers in audis, bmw's or mercs, and mostly second hand at that, I think you should be able to get a parking ticket for this.

W**kers that have a chip on their shoulder about what others drive. Seriously get over it.

Take it you like the status symbol - bet you have a personalised number plate as well.  ;)

Maybe someday when you grow up you'll be able afford an Audi also.... :)

And park over two spaces like a w**ker?  Maybe I drive a car which is practical for my family and I and don't need to have an erection at a second hand status symbol - but as long as you are enjoying life kid !
